- 1). Check the water in the pump to ensure that it is not empty. If there is no water in the pump, fill the pump before starting it. Running the pump dry can damage it.
- 2). Remove the trap cover and close the gate valves in the discharge and suction pipes.
- 3). Release all the pressure from the filter, pump and piping system. If the pump is in a flooded suction system, it will prime itself when the discharge and suction valves are released.
- 4). Start the system.
- 5). Ensure the pump functions properly by checking to ensure the water level is above the bottom of skimmer. The water level should be no less than 2 inches above the skimmer bottom. If the water is not above the skimmer, the pump will lose its prime.
